Vector based on a set and in the order of another vector

This feels like a very basic question, so I hope I am not in the wrong place.



I have a set of (color, value) pairs CV={(color_1,value_1), (color_2,value_2) ...} and a vector of colors color = [color_2, color_3, color_1,...].



I want to formally define the vector Value as the values in CV but in the order that the corresponding color appears in the color vector.



Is there a more mathematically exact way of writing this?



Example: CV = {(orange, 7), (red, 3), (blue, 91), (green,22)} and color=[red, blue, green, orange]. Now Value should be Value = [3, 91, 22, 7].



Thanks in advance.

  • thanks for the swift answer. My question would be: Is there a more mathematically exact way of writing this. Because right now it sounds a bit vague.

  • Not really. What you've said is precise. Given any CV and color, I can define Value precisely.

CV defines a map mapping colors to values. Hence we can write $Value = (CV(color_i))_{i=1}^n$, where $n$ is the given dimension.
